I downloaded the current version. Ran setup.
The program is using a webinstaller, which means, the file you download is more of a gateway to the files.
There is no installation setup files for downloading in 1 single complete package.
Alot of developers are going this route, to control their software, to insure new users get the latest packages with all updates.
This makes it near impossible to download an older version. About the only way to obtain an older version would be if someone else had downloaded this server program and went through their temp folder, saving all the downloaded packages, ofcourse this does not mean that would work either if the files are in a proprietary compressed format, which many developers are using as well.

Well, that is not exactly true. For example, QuickTime is just a web installer which retrieves a dat file with all the installation information from the master server. What we did with QuickTime, was save the DAT file from the temporary files and zip it up, if both files are unzipped to the same path - the installer will just receive the following DAT file containing the older version.

The new version crash on my computer very often and is more unstable that version 2.3.5, the version I used before. :huh: Therefore I want to degrade back to v. 2.3.5.
